The effort from this guy, the way he sends it, and the way he gives it his all after so many years is just friggin unbelievable. The guy was laid over low and flat tracking off that drop off lap after lap. Scrubbing jumps so hard his pegs hit dirt, and staying on the gas no matter what. Even if both feet were off the pegs. He wanted that win. Held off Ferrandis who was already right on his ass with 10 minutes plus a lap left! Props to Bam Bam.

Scrubbing that hard on the last lap of a 30 minute moto/dogfight with Ferrandis, which was just after a legthy dogfight with AC. Gotta love a warrior.

And Ferrandis is a machine. Full tilt to the finish no matter what. Epic battle we saw today.

Besides the incredible display of speed and talent these guys put on, both Barcia and Ferrandis didn't look even close to tired after the moto.

Barcia looked like he had just finished a warm up ride, not 35 plus minutes of battle.

These men are in some incredible shape.

Was there to watch today, Barcia was super aggressive and rippin' the track up everywhere.. Man he spent some energy today. Had speed to stay up front for both moto's. One of the best 450 rides I recall him putting in.

What an exciting rider. Love his style and aggression. Dude is flat out gnarly on a dirt scooter.

He's been at it since 2009. He's quietly racking up a pretty great and long career. Well... maybe not quietly.

Was there today- he had big time pressure the whole first moto. Never thought he’d hold on to the lead.

You could tell the crowd was pulling for him...Was awesome to watch!

I just got home from the race. Arguably Barcia's best moto of his career. Very exciting to watch.

WFO Scrubbing off the blind edge of a 4 story building?

Just jaw dropping.

I’ve re- watched it about a dozen times and every time I just can’t believe what I’m seeing.

I sure hope one of the pro photo guys got a shot of this.

The part where he jumps across DF14’s line, and then holds his arm up in the air was epic. Last lap?

Probably higher than 4 stories. If there’s a track to take the biggest risk at its Millville. The Mayo Clinic is in Rochester 20 min away. The best clinic in the country.

I caught that too. They had Barcia on camera when he took his helmet off at the truck, barely looked like he was breathing hard.

Agree with all the above, was edge of your seat stuff for 20 min. straight. Scrubbing that downhill was next level commitment!

One I took from Southwick. The guy looks great on the bike and is fighting all the way to the line with that aggression.

When I ride, I hope to ride like this, like Johnson, like Schwantz.

After watching those races yesterday...maybe there should be a camera on Barcia every lap of every race.

If the action up front isn't great, go to the Bam Cam. You know it's gonna be a highlight reel no matter where he is in the standings.

Awesome job JB51!

Best moto I've seen in some time...Barcia dealt with tons of pressure and hung it out the entire moto.

Couldn't help but think of some numb skull here who claimed Barcia wouldn't win another race this year.
